No so fast, normale user Experience.
Google maps and switching apps Sometimes lag.
Will be better with oreo? I dont think so

It's not what I'd call impressively fast, but not noticing anything too bad so far in my first week and a half of use. It's what I was expecting from the reviews I read, I knew this was no flagship chip I was getting.
Little bit of lag in some situations, takes a second to process a 23MP shot for example, stuff like google maps can lag a bit sometimes.
Overall, not disappointed with the performance considering the price I paid for it.

Its good
The system it self is decent
And anything else wich needs internet will be
depending on the internet speed
I at home have average wifi speed
But when I find high speed wifi at some places
Than browsing is really nice Experience
All in all very good and very satisfide
EDIT
Now after several times doing factory reset..
and few times letting it install all the google apps..
I must say...it is just a good speed.. not fast..but it is good enough..
Couse I have had some 4 core phones like the old nexus motorola wich
Installed my google apps in few minutes...this one takes some time to install
But
When installed the speed is good enough..
Other..
It will be depending on the internet for browseing..
All in All not something to think its bad or complain..but its not that fast
And thats what I am reporting..just some info..
Maybe someone needs the fastest..so this is not that..
Hope I have helped

UI is smooth.

I am not impressed by it's speed, neither its camera on both sides

No lags and stutters in day to day usage!
I never waited for any application to be loaded or executed.
my lag has been terrible since my upgrade to 7.0 and above
This phone is as smooth as butter

Reset ur phone
I haven't yet. But perhaps I'll give it a shot. I just doubt it will improve performance as the issue appears to be RAM management related. The updates allowed more ram to be accessed and keeps more apps resident in memory. However this comes at the cost of performance.

Heat

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Sony Xperia XZ stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.

Heats up very quickly through normal use and ambient weather temperature, struggles to lose the temperature then begins to lag.
Same here, even with Marshmallow and Nougat during normal use. Actually with Oreo seems no problem
it has been the same when ambient temperature is high the phone simply cant handle the heat and u can have marshmalow or oreo no mather what it wont help...phone starts to lag to a point when u have to turn it off for few mins and the use it again...it has beeen like this since xperia z3+/4 and z5 with SD810 under the hood...Sony is very bad at reducing heat in there devices...i compared other devices with same chipset and even if they get warm or hot they still work like they should...why Sony offers us a highend phone with lowend capabilities...i remember the perfomance of my xperia z2...4k recording up to 1 hour no problem ,i could play games more then hour and the phone got warm sometimes even hot to touch but it worked with no LAGS....and last one most anoying is the screen input touch ,just go ahead and compare every phone u can with xperia and ull notice the lag in the screen input...so bad from Sony also XZ is probably my last xperia and i had Z,Z2,Z5 they were good but the competition is far better.and last one Xperia phones should sell for winter gadgets,couse u can warm up ur hands if u need to LOL...cheers guys
My phone stopped recording 4K video after 2 minutes with error messages about heat. Had to close camera app for 5 mintues to be able to record another 1 minute. Completely hopeless phone.
I tried to play heavy games like Asphalt 8, PUBGM and Mobile Legends, It reaches like 50-60 degree celsius to the point where I can't even hold the phone. When recording only in 720p / 1080p, it warns me that the phone is overheating and disables some of the functionality and the room temperature is at 15-18 degree celcius

I wasted my money buyiny this crap. I can't ever use the camera due to overheat & it shuts down. Thanks to a G-camera 5.0 version that works withouy camera 2 api enabled. So anyone can use that without adb or flash. That's 5.0 version G-camera saved me. Else I would have never able to use Camera itself in my phone. But apps & games? Omg. I have become a optimization expert using this phone. Through choosing apps among many for the same category of Functionality. Bcz everything lags due to a small 3GB ram. Only marshmallow did it lagged. But since Android 7 lag & heat has become a part of this device. So now others ask me apps for a cetrgory which is most optimized & I suggest them. ? ?

its not lag because 3gb ram, its thermal throttling. known issue with Sony camera app is all clocks max out.

Speed on XT1663 , its okay nut not so great on 2018, but if you need social media and youtube or watching movie this device speed is OKAY,
I'm not a heavy user by any means, but this phone's performance is a disaster.
It manages to lag when playing very simplistic 2d puzzle games (think stuff with as little animations as 2048) and slows down horribly in youtube, when using the interface. The video viewing part itself isn't that bad, but any UI will kill the phone.
And don't even get me started on the recent apps view, just opening it seems to require so much CPU and RAM that it'd kill all the apps that are open.

This is the best phone I had on my hand! It's a bit heavy for my taste but in general is a beast.

Actually the more I use it, the more I love it. I have this phone since about 14 days now and it's so great! What I said about the weight now I got used to it. It's lighter than Nexus 6P.
Battery life for me is great, from 8am 100% to 8pm i get about 35/45% with normal to heavy use (surfing on chrome, instagram, twitter, taking photos, and lots of whatsapp, changing between 4G and WiFi) not more than 1 day and a half. But for me is Okay. Also fast charging is better than the OnePlus dash charge, just in 10 minutes it went from 20% to 51% so thats super fast. You won't have problems with battery life. (Also I enabeled dark theme and low resolution battery friendly).
Regarding smoothness is really smooth and apps open way fast. Multitasking is a pleasure on this phone. You can get eventual but tiny lags or apps delay but not so important (may be my firmware). Depending on your firmware you can have some touch response lag or not responding well on touches, but with my actual firmware it's working fine (LON-L29C636B182). And the fingerprint scanner also is terrific! The fastest I saw (and I used the OP3 too). So you will get awesome performance on this phone.
Updates are some trouble because huawei updates them via OTA and they mess it up, but with the actual one I'm good. Also in my country Argentina, you can't find much accesories so bare it in mind on your country. If you don't mind loosing the S pen go for it, super reccomended.
If you have more questions just ask me. Cheers
PD: also I love the "stereo" speakers, sounds loud and clear.
In general, the smartphone is very good only there is a big problem with Wi-Fi reception

Not really...
My Mate works fine. Love it!
Hugely impressed by Mate 9 Pro. Have used LG G5. Galaxy S6 and Xperia XZ before, this phone is a class above. Fast, excellent battery, thin, good sound, good camera, plenty of storage and ram, sleek and professional design and a sharp screen.
Huawei is the Best.It is True.
Definitely it's a classy phone and people wonder to know which model I'm using. So far I had no problems with it.

Moto Z2 Play - Processor Quality?

Hey everyone, i am thinking to buy this phone later this month, but recently a friend told me that its processor it's not so good and it's kind of slow. All the other features the phone has are good for me, but i am bit skeptical for the processor. Any thoughts about it? Ty in advance
It's not slow. Comparing to top-range chipsets, it has a little underclock, emmc memory (instead of ufs) and ddr3 ram (instead of ddr4). So is a bit slower opening apps, but we are talking about milliseconds. Gaming is fine. Anyway if you can wait 1/2 months in early june the z3 play will be realeased with the next gen of processors and probably a 18:9 screen.
Ty mate
It's working great, no slowdowns nor "hiccups" for me.
It feels a little bit "slower" when compared to Moto X4, but it's subtle feeling.
In general, very smooth experience overall.
You can look up the speed rating but from memory it is about as fast as the sd808. I'm not much of a gamer but everything my kids have made me play seemed fine. For regular use I don't notice anything laggy.
First of all thnx everyone for the answers. I am not a gamer either, at least on the phone. I am more concerned about the daily workload, like Emails, Facebook, Browsing, GPS, Viber and phone itself via BT and also its interesting the moto mods like the extra charging cover, the wireless charger, the speaker and maybe the camera or the projector. I really like also the fact that it supports 2 Sim cards and a dedicated SD card. I have found some Amazon eu deals around to 250 euro and I just asked here to have a 2nd opinion
Thnx everyone for the answers once again. I decided to buy it, I am bit concerned how easy will be to root it but we will see
